31 LONGACRES Price Paid vs. HPI Average

The below graph shows the average detached house price in the St Albans local authority area over time, sourced from the HPI. The four 31 LONGACRES sales between May 1999 and May 2022 have been plotted on the graph. A line has been extrapolated to show what the value of the property might have been over time, following each sale, had it maintained the same margin above or below the HPI (as a percentage). For example, the November 2016 sale was for 38% below the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 38% below the HPI over time, until the May 2022 sale, where it rises to 33% below the HPI.
